WORK EXPERIENCE

United Nations Office for Project Services (UNOPS), Ampara, Sri Lanka
District Engineer, Community Access Programme (CAP) – European Union Funded
March 2007 - Present

A European Union-funded €30 Million labour-based village road reconstruction and maintenance project with core goals of constructing 400km of rural roads and developing an asset management/maintenance regime, carried out in the eastern district of Ampara, Sri Lanka over a period of approximately 3 years.

Roads were constructed using locally available lateritic materials, graded aggregate or water bound macadam basecourse materials and typically surfaced with a sprayed seal. Mortared masonry or concrete drainage structures were also constructed where required. The majority of the work was carried out using labour-based methods under direct supervision, and contractors were also used.

The project was implemented with Local Government Authorities, the Eastern Provincial Council and the Ministry of Provincial Councils.

Core duties included:

* Management of 4 Senior National Engineers and 8 Junior Engineers/Technical Officers as well as non-staff Technical Officers and Supervisors for planning, document preparation and construction of labour-based works (65 contracts, 125km, $6M);
* Selection of suitable roads following an Integrated Rural Accessibility Planning (IRAP) study;
* Liaison with local councils and community groups with regards to road selection, construction plans and requirements, ensuring fair representation and distribution of work to all ethnic groups where necessary;
* Mobilisation of communities to carry out the work, including ensuring all people who wanted to work were given a fair opportunity to do so;
* Preparation of Bills of Quantity and controlling costs to construct within the budget at a time when inflation caused many changes in transport costs, which affects both material and labour inputs;
* Planning of construction sequence including timely allocation of resources (machinery, materials and personnel);
* Ensuring Technical Specifications for source materials and construction quality were adhered to;
* Ensuring all paperwork and procedures, especially procurement practice and invoices, was completed or carried out within established rules;
* Training/mentoring of Junior Engineers, Technical Officers and Supervisors;
* Engineer to the Contract for roads tendered out to contractors, responsible for assessing and authorising claims, overseeing quality control, and ensuring works completed to time and budget (3 contracts, 13km, $1M);
* Manage extensive renovation of office and international staff guesthouse premises.

Construction Project Manager, Revive 2 (EGCAP) – USAID Funded
September 2006 – November 2007 (overlap with CAP project above)

The Revive 2 project was a USAID-funded US$1 Million labour-based village road reconstruction project with the aim of reconstructing 8km of internal roads and providing mass employment in a Tsunami and conflict affected community over the wet season, when both traditional and day-labour job opportunities are severely reduced. This project was carried out in Pottuvil town in the Ampara District over a period of 1 year.

Core duties included:

* Management of around 20 technical and support staff.
* Identification and prioritisation of roads to be constructed in consultation with the community;
* Setting up and managing a casting yard to produce approximately 1 Million hexagonal paving blocks, produced by 300 people at the peak of production;
* Managing traffic counting and site investigations, carrying out pavement design and overseeing construction;
* Ensure that all timesheets and expenditure reports were prepared in a timely manner so that all labourers could be paid on a weekly basis;
* Training local labour in concrete block laying and road construction to ensure some maintenance capacity was left behind in the community;
* Training/mentoring non-staff Technical Officers, many of whom were still studying;
* Full financial responsibility for the project including budgeting and reporting.

United Nations Office for Project Services (UNOPS), Ampara, Sri Lanka
Construction Project Manager, Revive (ALRT) Project – USAID Funded

This provided training for approximately 300 people in steel fixing and concrete mixing, pouring and compaction in preparation for the anticipated demand from contractors during the construction of a large bridge in the area.

Core duties were similar to those mentioned for the Revive 2 project above, but also included:

* Setting up office and hiring local staff;
* Co-ordinating and performing both field and classroom training;
* Establishing UNOPS presence in the area, and establishing and cultivating relationships with local and district leaders, including non-state actors that had significant influence in the area.
